Waiting for #603 before marking as ready to review.

My last commit addresses the concern raised in ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh#10412 (comment), where multiple entries of src could end up being added to fpath.

The approach I used was taken from https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/62581/427940, and I would really like to know if there better or cleaner approaches out there for handling such a situation in ZSH.

Hi, I understand this completions-dir.txt file is specific to OMZ ? I don't think this project should be polluted with this kind of plugin manager specific files, it just makes it harder for other packagers and users. Not a big deal, just my two cents.

Specifically for OMZ for now, this is a new feature that I'm introducing at ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh#10565. Other package managers can also make use of it if they want.

Also, isn't https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-completions/blob/master/zsh-completions.plugin.zsh already specific to OMZ?

The <foo>.plugin.zsh is the only convention that is widely adopted by "plugin managers".

Does anyone else have thoughts on this ?

@nicoulaj just to mention, I totally understand your reasonings.

I'm just trying to solve an outstanding incompatibility issue between this project and OMZ. But any better ideas are 100% welcome, of course.

Please don't. OMZ should deal with its own problems without the expense of other projects or users who don't use OMZ.

I agree, this solution is not elegant and any changes that we make need to be adopted by the majority of plugin managers. It seems that most PMs support changing $fpath in the .plugin.zsh file.

This is not taken into account in OMZ because the compinit call happens before the plugin.zsh file is read (this is to allow running compdef in the .plugin.zsh, most outstandingly used in the git plugin).

If there is a solution to allow support for completion changes in the .plugin.zsh file while running compinit later, this solution wouldn't even be needed. Other PMs seem to do this, so it looks to me like there's no need for this and we simply have to improve OMZ.
